EACH SPICE ~ Time ~ Curry ~ All Spice !
PUT IN HOT FAT to brown wit onions an'

ADD WATER an' simmer for 30 minutes
SMELL IS CARIBBEAN ! Chick is tender !
NOW COOKIN' de Rice 'n Peas ~ Allilujah !
COVER BASMATI RICE wit water add spice onion & bullion ~ Boil
HALF HOUR an' all liquid an' spice will be absorbed !
I DEN ASK MAMMY "Can i stir in de Black Eyed Beans

- Comment from author about the poem: I know the Ladies like a recipe ~ the cooking information is in the Poem but there was not enough room for quantities so here is the information ! The recipe fees FOUR so you need either 4 chicken legs or 4 breast portions (as shown in photo) or a mixture ~ Legs for the Men and Breasts for the Ladies ! For the Chicken you need ~ 2 red onions ~ 4 large tomatoes ~ 450ml of water and spice according to taste ~ OK For the Peas 'n Rice you ned ~ 125g of brown basmati rice ~ 1 red onion ~ 400g can of black~eyed beans and 600ml of water. Hope that extra information enables you all to have a taste and scent of the CARIBBEAN ! Comments welcome ~ love to ALL ~ BRIAN XOXOXOX

Sounds yummy! Jealous that you got a taste of Barbados and I have not! Written so well I did not realize it was an acrostic! Great job! Caribbean hugs-Christina
Yes CHRIS ~ looks as good as it tastes ! You are much nearer the WINDIES than I am so no excuse ! I will post the recipe (quantities) as a comment OK . One of the problems of MPS is that The Poem Menu is only visible for TWO DAYS so anything in excess of 10 comments is exceptional ~ we did really well to get 12 on "LOVE IS" we must collaborate again sometime ! SPICY HUGS ~ BRIAN @@@@@@@@@
